If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?

If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?
Obviously there's no voice or data roaming for Verizon 3G/4G/CDMA phones in Europe.... (or am I wrong?)
Thanks in advance!

Hello WCMack,
That was a great explanation on the situation. Just to confirm, Europe uses GSM for their wireless network. There are third party apps that will allow you to make calls via wi-fi on a wi-fi enabled device. This is largely due if wi-fi is available and if it's free.
From my experience, I was able to make wi-fi calls on my Iphone 4 in Greece without any problems last month. Since we don't own any towers in Europe, the service is hit or miss. Feel free to update us when you get back.
Enjoy your trip!...

  • While on vacation in Europe, can I use Skype to ca...

    Hi,
    I live in the US and am going to Europe on vaction.  I would like to know if I can use Skype to call within the countries that I will be visitin and between European coutries.   I will not be using my US mobile data plan so I understand that I need to be connected via wifi.  
    I will be in France, Belgium and The Netherlands.  I will be using my Android (v4.4.2) phone or an iPad3 (v8.1) I am also assuming that all calls will be to a landline.  
    Will I be able to use Skype in this manner?
    Regards

  • Lost duckhead, can i use my apple battey charger duckhead?

    hi
    difficult one, i lost my duckhead - (maybe) shipped with
    my mbp 15" mid 2010 refurb and instead of buying a new europ. duckhead in my local apple store, can i use my apple battery charger duckhead?
    it must have same specs yes?
    european, germany..
    i am traveling from monday on,  so i dont need the long power cable
    and thought about only traveling with duckhead plugged into power cord from mbp
    thanks!

    If you want to replace the cord on your power adapter with this:
    it will be electrically compatible, but will it fit the sockets that you will encounter?
    Ciao.

  • Can i use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air

    Can I use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air?

    It's really not recommended. The iPhone's 5w charger does not output enough current to properly charge the battery. It -may- charge but if it did, it would charge the iPad very slowly.
    This would be like trying to fill a bucket of water (iPad) with a squirt gun (5w charger)
    Also under iOS 7, the charging requirements are much stricter than iOS 6. You'll likey get an error message if you try.

  • Can I use the 85 watt charger on the 13" unibody aluminum MBP?

    Can I use the 85 watt charger on the 13" unibody aluminum MBP instead of the 60 watt that came with it??
    Is it safe to use any of the 3rd party chargers instead of the $79 Apple model?? Some of these are 1/2 the price or less

    "Some of these are 1/2 the price or less..."
    How much is your computer worth: $40, $50? The counterfeit power adapters that I've seen are improperly grounded - is that OK for your computer or you personally? The real power adapters meet are necessary international safety and agency compliance standards - do the counterfeit products meet the same threshold. The real power adapters have over-current, over-voltage, and over-temperature protection...do the counterfeit products have these features.
    Is your personal safety and your computer worth more than $40 or $50?

  • Can I use a Magsafe 60w charger for my mac air (late 2013)?

    Can I use a magsafe 60w charger with my late 2013 macbook air computer. The connector is right but the computer came with a 45w charger.

    Be advised that these are user to user forums with no Apple employees on duty.  There are no time limits in effect and a post can go unanswered.  There is no obligation on anyone's part to reply.

  • Can i use a 85 watt charger with a new macbook air

    Can i use a 85 watt charger with a new macbook air that comes with a 45 watt charger. One says its 14.8 volts and the other is 20 volts.

    To be clear, the wattage of the adapter is not the power delivered to the Mac, but rather the power the adapter is capable of delivering.
    Think of it as the difference between a 200 HP and a 400 HP engine; both can drive at a certain speed with no issues, the difference is what happens if you floor the gas pedal.
    The same is true between the higher wattage power adapter that comes with the iPad and the one that comes with iPhones; you can use the higher wattage adapter to charge and iPhone with no issue, but if you try and use the iPhone adapter to charge the iPad it may work, but it will take much, much longer.

  • Can I use my iPad mini charger for my iPhone 5c.

    Can I use my iPhone 5c charger for my iPad mini

    Hi 50mike,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below may be able to help you with this.
    Click on the link to see more details and screenshots. 
    iPhone, iPad, iPod: Using iPad Power Adapters
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4327
    You can use the iPad mini charger to charge the iPhone 5C, but not recommended the other way around.
    The article below explains that the iPhone charger is meant to charge only iPhones and 1st generation iPad mini.
    iPad: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060
    To charge your iPad battery, try one of these:
    Connect iPad to a power outlet using the included cable and USB power adapter (use the table below to determine which adapter is intended for your iPad.)
    Connect to a high-power USB 2.0 port using the included cable.
    Note: Some USB 2.0 ports and accessories do not provide enough power to charge iPad. When this occurs the message "Not Charging" appears in the status bar next to the battery icon.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Happy Holidays!

  • Can i use the iphone 4 charger to charge my ipad 2?

    Can I use my Iphone 4 charger to charge my Ipad 2?

    Nothing will be ruined by offering less power. Options for charging given in the documentations include USB sockets on your computer, which only offer half of the power of the iPhone charger. Any method of charging will work, differing only in how long it will take.
